Brian Milne joined me in-studio for last night’s podcast. Milne is a former Cal Poly beat writer for the Tribune and is the founder of ballhyped.com and ballhyped.net.

Just one week ago, Andy, Luke and I debated whether Mike Brown was right for the job. Andy was fed up. I wasn’t too pleased. But the prevailing thought was that with time, they’d mold themselves into at least a solid playoff squad. How could they not with a roster that chalk-full of stars?

The next day, Brown was fired. Lakers ownership decided that Brown couldn’t be the one to get them to the promised land. The ensuing hiring was even more salacious than the early-season firing. Phil Jackson, who dates Jeanie Buss, was not pleased with how ownership — namely Jeanie’s brother Jim and General Manager Mitch Kupchak — moved forward at midnight on Sunday night with a late-night phone call.

Brian and I talked about the man the Lakers went with instead — Mike D’Antoni — and whether D’Antoni was a better choice than Phil Jackson and a number of other coaches that may or may not have been in the mix. We even compared D’Antoni to other coaches already in the league.

Brian also brought a breakdown of what an 8-team FBS playoff would look like if it started tomorrow. We talked about how great the 20-team FCS playoff system is and it’s movement to 24 teams starting next year.

Milne has been to Flagstaff for a Cal Poly football game at Northern Arizona in the past and gave some insight on the dome, Flagstaff’s elevation, and the fact that Cal Poly football has never beaten an Arizona team before.
